I honestly haven't been paying close attention to other states besides VA. And even with that I can't predict what'll happen.

Allen tried to censor books, because he saw a homosexual agenda. I hope he crashes and burns.

Okay, I'm not going to go further than this, but here are a few predictions:

Bill Ritter will win the Colorado governorship (sadly).
Tom Tancredo will win re-election (thank God).
George Allen will slip by and barely win re-election.
Joe Lieberman will win re-election in the Connecticut Senate race.
Michael Steele may well win Maryland.
Tom Kaine may well win New Jersey.
Bob Corker will win in Tennessee.
Nancy Pelosi will become Speaker of the House because the Dems will gain control of the House (nooooooooo!!!).
The Republicans will maintain control of the Senate.
The Democrats will likely win a majority of the governorships.

Overall, things aren't looking good for Republicans.

I went into this election expecting to have only one winner off my ballot. Looks like I was right.
